Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 228 Those who stand in my way die

  Liu Jian, as the chief minister of the cabinet, his suggestion, to some extent, is equivalent to the attitude of the entire civil service system to the emperor.

  In the past, Emperor Qin sent Xu Fu to the sea to seek immortal medicine. People despised this matter.

  Because Qin Huang was doing it for his own self-interest.

  But today, Emperor Hongzhi sent people to the sea to ask for grain seeds. This...is a great merit.

  To tell the truth, when Fang Jifan said these words, in fact, if Emperor Hongzhi did not issue an order to ask for grain seeds, I am afraid that if the news spreads, the soldiers and civilians all over the world will think that the current emperor is indifferent to people's livelihood.

   But how to ask, whether to find this rumored country, establish trade relations with it or make it a tribute, or finally the negotiation collapsed, and it is unknown to give him a vote for NIANG.

But at least, you have to know where this country is now, determine the location, and then map it out slowly. Even if it can't be realized when Emperor Hongzhi is in office, Emperor Hongzhi still has sons, and sons will have grandchildren, descendants, and grandchildren. …

   Obviously, Emperor Hongzhi was a hard worker, and he would never pass such troublesome things on to his descendants.

  Obviously, the whole of Ming Dynasty will be eyeing the whole of the Far West Country.

Fang Jifan sighed in his heart, if... there really is such a country in the far west, the ruler of this country is already sneezing, tens of millions of eyes with green light and hungry eyes are grinning one by one, Baring his teeth, sharpening his knife.

   And Liu Jian’s other meaning is...at all costs.

  Emperor Hongzhi understood: "This country actually knows me, Ming Dynasty?"

   "I know." Fang Jifan nodded, he must give Emperor Hongzhi greater hope...

Since the story begins, it is easy to tell later, so Fang Jifan said without hesitation: "The Hu merchant said that when the Sanbao **** went to the West, Zeng Zhibuwa, and that country also had contacts with Bucawa, so he decided to go to the west. If you don't stab Wa Guo in the mouth, you will be even more jealous when you know about my great Ming Dynasty."

   "..."

  The country of Brawa is Somalia in Africa, where Zheng He once arrived when he sailed to the West.

  Emperor Hongzhi was puzzled and said: "Wow?"

  Xiao Jing on the side hurriedly said in a low voice: "I have heard this name when I was watching the deeds of the Sanbao eunuch. The people of this country are like black coals, and their country is deep in the Western Ocean."

   All of a sudden, everyone cheered up, and all of them were beaming with joy.

  If the country in the far west is like a fairy island, disappearing without a trace, and everyone's eyes are darkened, it will be really difficult.

  But since there is news of this country in the country of Brawa, it will be easy to handle. Didn’t the **** of Sanbao go there? If the ancestors can go, so can we!

  The great cause of the grand plan, no, it is the livelihood of thousands of people, it is right in front of you.

  The fire of hope grew stronger, many people became excited, and the atmosphere in the hall became lively.

   "I think that I should immediately supervise the construction of large ships, follow the example of the three treasure eunuchs and go to sea, first look for the traces of the Burawa country, and then follow the vines. The country in the extreme west is not far away."

   "Your Majesty, if the Three Treasures **** had continued to go west, perhaps...by the time of Emperor Wen, Daming would have already obtained a better seed."

  Many people sighed, as if everyone had missed a huge treasure.

This voyage to the Western Ocean has a new meaning in an instant. The so-called voyage to the Western Ocean in the past was just to bring all nations to the DPRK. Waste of people's power.

  Going to the West will also bring the need for rare treasures and wealth.

   But many people jumped even more. The Ming Dynasty did not value business, and did not regard money as dung. How could they call themselves scholars and scholar-officials? How could the court do business?

   But now, he is looking for grain seeds. He is a guy who survives. With this grain seeds, even in a peaceful and prosperous age, I am afraid that Yao and Shun will not be able to compare.

  In a blink of an eye, the problem of hunger for the common people was solved, and the people depended on food, who would dare to object.

  Emperor Hongzhi's face was full of red, and there was hope in his eyes.

  He cheered up and said, "Ma Qing's house."

  Military Minister Ma Wensheng stepped forward and said, "The minister is here."

"The Ministry of War immediately followed the old law of the Sanbao **** to supervise the construction of ships and train the sergeants..." Emperor Hongzhi was silent for a moment, and then said: "The Ministry of Households should provide all the necessary public funds. If it is not enough, the funds in the palace can also be drawn. Some."

   This time, he was very generous.

  There is nothing to say, money is a trivial matter, this is a big question of right and wrong.

  Hearing this, Fang Jifan laughed in his heart!

In the blink of an eye, a new voyage to the West began. This time, Daming will go to sea with more determination, set up his sails, and head towards the deepest part of the ocean. They will see countless people and customs, and communicate with countless countries. Learn from each other. If one day in the future, corn may indeed be found, this corn may not be as miraculous as Fang Jifan said, but at least there will be some comfort, at least it should be worth the ticket price.

  As for Fang Jifan's exaggeration, at worst he will be dragged out and beaten up.

  But what does it matter? I, Fang Jifan, serve the country and the people, and have been edified by core values ​​for a long time. Even if my father doesn't recognize me after being beaten, it's worth it.

  Of course...Fang Jifan glanced at Liu Daxia from the corner of his eye.

  Liu Daxia was still having fun just now, there are such miraculous pearl rice and corn in the world.

  He even thought about it, he should write an eloquent article to praise this matter, so as to live up to his reputation as a gentleman.

   But gradually, his face became more and more rigid, especially when Emperor Hongzhi asked Ma Wensheng, Minister of the Ministry of War, to manufacture ships according to the method of the Three Treasures Eunuch, and was about to embark on the eighth voyage to the West, his face was instantly pale as paper.

   A bad feeling.

   Ma Wensheng was silent. He lowered his head and said nothing.

  In the hall, it was also quiet.

  Emperor Hongzhi obviously didn't know that all the materials of the Sanbao **** were destroyed when he went to the West. Perhaps this matter, to Liu Daxia, is worthy of a special book. This is the most glorious moment in his life.

  As the emperor, there are so many major events in the world, and some materials archived by the Ministry of War are burned, which is not a major event.

  So Emperor Hongzhi is full of ambition now. He even thinks that within five years, our fleet will arrive in Brawa, and find out the traces of this land in the far west.

  God bless you.

   It can be seen that Ma Wensheng hesitated for a long time, and Emperor Hongzhi felt that something was wrong, so he couldn't help asking: "Why, Ma Qing's family, why don't you say anything? Is there anything wrong with the court asking for a seed?"

In fact, Ma Wensheng originally disapproved of going to the West, but now, he also supports it with both hands. Now in this court, who dares to disapprove, this is simply an enemy of tens of millions of soldiers and civilians, and its nature has already been compared The ancestral grave of the old Zhu family is almost there.

But…

  Ma Wensheng's face became more and more ugly, Qiqi Aiai said: "The shipbuilding plan of the Sanbao eunuch, as well as all the documents of the voyage, have been... burnt!"

   "It's burning..." Emperor Hongzhi seemed to be struck by lightning. He even thought he had heard it wrong, and his face darkened instantly.

  The sudden needle drop could be heard in the palace, and almost everyone could feel the feeling of the emperor.

   It took countless money and food, the painstaking efforts of several generations, and countless skilled craftsmen exhausted their efforts, and the result... burned.

   This fever means that the next voyage to the West will add a lot of obstacles.

You know, the seven voyages to the West came step by step. Each time, they went deeper into the West, obtained more information and information, and then improved the ship so that it could withstand greater wind and waves. Continue to march toward the depths of the Western Ocean.

  Nothing can be accomplished overnight. Having lost the experience of his predecessors, the current Da Ming is like a blind and deaf man when it comes to the sea. Everything needs to be explored again.

   How much time, effort, and money will it take?

   "Why... will it burn!" Emperor Hongzhi was always gentle when facing his courtiers. At this time, his voice was obviously raised. He stared at Ma Wensheng. He was really angry. Long Yan was so angry that he trembled all over.

  Because of such a fire, everything disappeared!

   "Ministry of War, what do you eat? What's more, haven't all the documents been transcribed?"

   "..."

  Ma Wensheng couldn't answer, and he couldn't answer either.

  That's right, all documents must be backed up, unless someone with a heart does it deliberately, otherwise it is absolutely impossible to be burned in a blink of an eye.

  This is clear to everyone.

  At this time, many people who knew the situation had already set their eyes on Liu Daxia.

  This is Liu Daxia's most glorious time. For this reason, he often brags to others. Although it is only in private, as long as he checks, with the energy of Jin Yiwei, everything can be revealed to the world in minutes.

  But how could he have thought of the situation today? At this time, he was trembling all over, and he never expected that the deeds that once created the reputation of the most anxious gentleman have now become a disaster.

  His pale as paper face was bloodless, and his legs were shaking. Although Ma Wensheng didn't say anything, he knew that this fire had burned the efforts of the Sanbao eunuch, and now it was burning on himself.

   At this moment, he raised his eyes subconsciously, only to find that Fang Jifan was looking at him with a half-smile.

  Fang...following...Fan...

   It's him... is he trying to kill himself? Otherwise, why bring this up all of a sudden? Overseas affairs are illusory, and he can say whatever he wants...

   "Tell me clearly!" Emperor Hongzhi's roar echoed in Jinshen Hall, making everyone tremble involuntarily.

  Anyone has a bottom line, which has nothing to do with good or bad temper.

  Emperor Chenghua's bottom line was his own immortal medicine, and he would kill anyone who prevented him from making immortal medicine.

   As for Emperor Hongzhi, his bottom line is the countless kings lurking in his heart, whoever blocks him will die!

  Emperor Hongzhi's face was horribly livid, staring at Ma Wensheng.

   Ma Wensheng was obviously aware of the seriousness of the problem, and in the end, he whispered three words: "Liu... Da... Xia..."
